John Krasinski brought back a classic The Office Dwight prank to promote IF with Ryan Reynolds

Hey, remember that time Jim Halpert played an all-time great prank on Dwight Schrute on The Office in Season 9, in which he got his buddy Steve (played by the fantastic Randall Park) to play himself? And Dwight was so confused at the time, thinking he was going batty?
